Feed Readers with a Social Bookmarking Twist

Combine a feed reader/aggregator with social bookmarking, add more features, and you will end up with Feedest. Feedest intelligently learns what readers prefer, making constant adjustments to the ways of presenting the content provided by thousands of sources.

The variety of feed topics is so vast, that it makes it impossible to classify them without creating a complicated and cumbersome directory-like structure. Instead, Feedest relies on the members assigning keyword-tags to the feeds. When different members use same tags to mark various feeds, these keywords create instant cross-references allowing other members to find more feeds related to the topic.
